From what I understand (from another group I'm in) you are only allowed to open 3 threads per hour. GR was trying to deal with all the spammers.
Brighton Rock is on my randomised list, but it's also one of the January BOTMs, so please remind me how that works? (I'm sure it's written somewhere, but I'm on the mobile app only for a while and the app is seriously rubbish to navigate.)

Count the highest points which is BOTM and once read I will generate you a new book :) alternatively you can spend 3 points to swap from 1st January 2021

Thanks! That's fine then. No need to swap anything. I'm super happy with my generated list. :D

I just checked and I actually possess all four books and the Albert Cohen is a real doorstopper!
I wasn't able to read a single one from last year, although I did purchase them. Can I just put them on the randomized list for this year?

Hi Carol, unfortunately randomised list don't roll over. You can read and claim points for them as "other" books. You claim points based on number of pages.

Hi, I’ve not been very active in the group previously and just finding my way around everything. I’d be interested in joining in with this. Would you be able to make me a randomised list please?

Sure - I will make a note of you. New lists will be published over the Christmas break so everyone gets theirs at the same time :)

When you generate a randomised list you will be given 4 randomly selected books a minimum of 1 of which will be a Wish List book. A wish list (WL) book is one that has not been read or reviewed by the group yet and they tend to be the harder to find books especially those not translated into English.
Generating a list will gain you 5 participation points, reading and reviewing a randomised book will give you 2 participation points (3 for a WL book) and swapping a randomised book will cost you 3 participation points.
As the selection process is entirely random if you are given 3 books that you have already read, I will allow you to swap 1 of the 3 free of charge the others will need to be re-read or will cost you 3 participation points to swap.
If you swap a Wish List book you will be allocated a new Wish List book so think carefully about your choices.
If you are given a book that is not translated into a language you can read this can be swapped free of charge.
Every time you read and review a randomized book a new one will be generated for you, feel free to prompt me as I find GoodRead's messages a little unpredictable to say the least. To prompt me send a PM to Book Wormy details can be found in the Admin section on the home page.
If you would like a randomized list generate please respond to this post and I will action it for you. Once I have generated your list I will delete your request so I can keep track of what I have done :) If you want just Wish List books please let me know in your request.
To make it fair and so that everyone sees their lists at the same time I will generate them on Sunday 27th December.
Good luck and happy reading :)
Randomised lists will be generated and updated at the weekend due to my real world commitments if I haven't updated you on the Friday after your post feel free to send Bookwormy a PM
